Chapter 42
Soon it will be the day of the martial arts banquet.

When Gu Mingzhu arrived with Gu Xiurong, it was almost dusk, the sunset was like clouds, and the Jing'an Hou Mansion had already hung up lanterns early.

The two were seated with the butler, and there were dancers dancing to the music in the court.

Sitting in the upper room, Jing'an Hou Wu Jingyan was coaxing her one-year-old daughter, smiling all over her face.

Gu Mingzhu glanced around without any trace.

It's really lively tonight, all the big families are here.

Suddenly feeling a scorching gaze resting on her body, Gu Mingzhu caught it and looked over, meeting Yun Zhao's slightly disappointed and dejected gaze.

Gu Mingzhu looked away expressionlessly, and hurriedly bumped into a woman.

Both of them were caught off guard, and then Gu Mingzhu smiled slightly, raised the wine glass in front of him, and saluted from afar.

The woman smiled, responded generously, covered her face and drank.

Gu Xiurong chatted with other people, but he kept paying attention to her from the corner of the eye. When he saw Gu Mingzhu's movements, he followed her and said in a low voice, "Know you?"

Gu Mingzhu shook her head: "I don't know, it's the first time I've seen you."

Gu Xiurong didn't ask any more questions, and said: "This is strong wine, drink less."

"Okay." Gu Mingzhu seemed to be very obedient today, but when Gu Xiurong turned her head away, she had already poured another glass and drank it down, her eyes shining brightly.

Li Ruyue, we really haven't seen each other for a long time.

This woman, who was later supported by Yun Zhao, called her sister one by one at the beginning, and finally bit her neck fiercely.

Gu Mingzhu stretched out her hand to touch her neck, the tentacles were tender and smooth, she couldn't help smiling.

A person came over from the side table and asked curiously, "Are you Gu Mingzhu?"

The girl looks like nine or ten years old, her hair is tied up in a double bun, and her round face is like a glutinous rice dumpling, full of innocence.

Gu Mingzhu smiled kindly: "I'm Gu Mingzhu, which family's lady are you from?"

"I'm Yue Hua." The little girl blinked: "Can you do me a favor?"

Yue Hua.

Gu Mingzhu imitated her by blinking.

Yue Hua pointed to the distance with his little finger, leaned closer and whispered: "Can you help me call my sister back, there is someone who has been pestering my sister."

Gu Mingzhu glanced in the direction she pointed, and asked, "Your sister? Who is your sister?"

"My sister is Yue Jingshu."

Gu Mingzhu was slightly taken aback, Yue Jingshu?Yue's parents' daughter, her future sister-in-law?
Gu Mingzhu stood up, Yue Hua took her hand, and the two quietly walked down the corridor.

Passing through the arch, the light dimmed, and after two steps, a woman's annoyed voice came from behind the rockery: "Ion Yu, you are presumptuous!"

Yue Hua's face turned pale, and she tightened Gu Mingzhu's hand, Gu Mingzhu held it back, and said in a low voice, "Go, stay away."

Yue Hua said: "I won't go." Although he said, his face was clearly frightened.

Gu Mingzhu smiled slightly at her: "Okay, sister, go and bring your sister out now, but can Hua'er do me a favor?"

Gu Mingzhu glanced at the distance, and then said: "I saw Xu Jue just now, you know Xu Jue, just say I'm in..." She pointed to the pavilion not far away: "Wait for him there."

Yue Hua followed her gaze, and quickly nodded in response.

Seeing her trotting away, Gu Mingzhu immediately walked towards the rockery, getting closer.

"You...you let go!"

"I'm not! Sister Jingshu, you just follow me..."

Ion Yu smiled grimly, relying on his size to surround the girl in a small world.

"Ion Yu, how dare you be disrespectful! I will sue Shengqian!" Yue Jingshu said angrily.

"Sister Jingshu, tell me. I don't believe the emperor will do anything to me. In this way, everyone will know about you and me. When your reputation is ruined, you still have to be my concubine." Ion Yu said in a playful tone. , the woman's wrist turned red, and she stretched out her hand to touch her face, and said with endless aftertaste: "Jingshu, you just follow me, and when the time comes, Hua'er..."

Yue Jingshu's eyes suddenly fell behind Ion Yu, and even the struggle was much lighter.

Ion Yu felt abnormal, just turned his head, and a fist came down on his face. He was unprepared, and suddenly hit the rockery wall with stars in his eyes, and the smell of blood spread from his mouth.

Ion Yu gritted his back molars hard, and saw the visitor clearly through the hazy moonlight.

Gu Mingzhu tilted her head towards him, opened her mouth and mocked softly: "Beast!"

"Gu Mingzhu!" Ion Yu covered his face with anger: "You dare to hit me?"

Ion Yu stared at her gloomyly, and said with a sneer: "Gu Xiurong's official is considered to be the best!"

Gu Mingzhu folded her arms around her chest and did not speak.

Ion Yu shouted angrily: "Don't think that Xu Jue can save you this time!"

He stretched out his hand to grab the person in front of him, but Gu Mingzhu didn't dodge or dodge, but Yue Jingshu behind him exclaimed: "Girl be careful!"

Ion Yu grabbed Gu Mingzhu's throat, with a grim expression: "Since you sent it to your door, then I will try it hard..."

The abdomen suddenly touched a sharp object.

Ion Yu was surprised, and looked down, the dagger sank immediately, and the pain quickly spread throughout his body.

He couldn't believe it: "You..."

The dagger slammed.

Yue Jingshu's face turned pale with fright, and she forgot to react.

Ion Yu involuntarily let go of Gu Mingzhu's hand, and slowly fell to the side: "You...you..."

The girl squatted in front of him and smiled slightly: "I don't know if my brother's official job is successful or not, but I accept your life. Ion Yu, a scum like you doesn't deserve to live in this world."

Ion Yu's body gradually twitched, and soon he lost his breath. Gu Mingzhu thought for a while, and pushed him into the rockery pool.

After finishing all this, she stood up, looked at the people beside her, and said, "Miss Yue, let's go."

Her expression was too calm, as if the person who died was not a person.

Yue Jingshu pulled her away in a hurry, her steps were fast.

"Sister." Yue Hua trotted to keep up.

With this call, Yue Jingshu's three souls and seven souls were instantly transferred back to their original places. She looked at the girl in a daze, and suddenly said with a silly smile: "Hua'er is fine."

Yue Jingshu took Yue Hua by the hand and said, "Miss Gu, act as if you haven't seen me tonight, no matter what, you helped us, and this matter will never implicate you."

Gu Mingzhu said with a smile: "Sister Yue was joking, I killed the man..."

"You didn't kill it!" Yue Jingshu quickly interrupted her: "It was me...I killed Ion Yu!"

"Sister Yue." Gu Mingzhu put his hand on her shoulder: "None of us has seen Ion Yu tonight. I hit it off with you and we've talked since then."

Yue Jingshu's eyes trembled, and her thoughts gradually calmed down after repeated repetitions.

Yes.

Ion Yu avoided everyone, who would suspect the two for no reason?

His nasty behavior dragged the two of them out of the quagmire of murderers.

Yup!

Ion Yu is strong and strong, how could the two weak women be rivals and kill people?
This is unreasonable!

Yue Jingshu held Yue Hua's hand tightly, her eyes gradually became firmer, and said: "Sister is right, we really hit it off."

Yue Jingshu took Yue Hua back to the banquet.

Gu Mingzhu sat under the gazebo, and soon there were footsteps behind her.

She turned her head, Xu Jue was walking in the darkness down the corridor, and then stood still in front of her.

Gu Mingzhu smiled and asked, "Is the injury healed?"

Xu Jue's shadow shrouded her, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Do you still remember that I was injured? A heartless guy."
